Are you following me on Instagram? On Twitter? If not, now is the time to do it as I'm starting some giveaways just in time for the holidays! What kind of giveaways? Glad you asked!

Yes, I could give away books, and that may be included, but I know the holidays can be a rough time for people financially. So I'm going to be giving away gift cards for online shopping, gas cards, and even straight up cash through Venmo. 

You must be following me on at least one of the platforms above as that is where I'll be holding the giveaways! So what are you waiting for? Go follow me!!

Let's talk about whirlwind romances...

Do you believe in love at first sight? Do romances that happen really quickly in a story come across as unbelievable to you, or do you find yourself rooting for the characters in spite of the timeline? 

Connecting Strangers, my romantic suspense releasing July 21st, has a whirlwind romance, and I see that it's a divided issue between reviewers. Some like it. Some don't. 

To me, when someone is hungry for love and they meet "the one", they know. Their hearts tells them not to waste time. Maybe that makes me a bit of a softie or even too much of a dreamer. Regardless, I still believe in fairy tales, and whirlwind romances are what dreams are made of. 

What about you? Do you think romances that happen fast are too unrealistic? How long did you know your spouse or significant other before you knew he/she was the one?
